  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly rise to recognize an outstanding 
individual, Christina Porrello of Kansas City, Missouri, who received a 
Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Art, a double major, from William 
Jewell College, on May 5, 2007.
  The commencement ceremony was held at the Mabee Center for Physical 
education shortly after the graduating class observed the campus 
tradition of the last walk around the quad at approximately 1:45 p.m.
  Christina has been very active in pursing her degree, while also 
participating in many Delta Zeta sorority activities. Christina intends 
to teach art or special education classes. Also, I want to acknowledge 
the support of her parents, Joe and Sandie Porrello, and her siblings 
Andrea, Connie Jo and Joe Jr.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in congratulating 
Christina Porrello on her achievement and wish her the best of luck in 
her future endeavors. It is an honor to represent her in the United 
States Congress.
